Restorative Care01:19

Restorative Care

2.5K
Restorative care is provided once a patient has been discharged from a healthcare facility and requires additional services. The additional services include home care, rehabilitation programs, and extended care. Restorative care centers help the patient regain their previous level of functioning or acquire a new level of functioning due to the incapacitating effects of a disease or a disability. It aims to assist patients in enhancing their quality of life by encouraging independence,...

Teeth01:15

Teeth

2.1K
The formation of teeth, also known as odontogenesis, is a complex process that begins in utero, around the sixth week of embryonic development. There are three stages to this process: the bud stage, the cap stage, and the bell stage.
In the bud stage, the tooth germ (an aggregation of cells) starts to form in the developing jawbone. During the cap stage, the tooth germ differentiates into enamel organ, dental papilla, and dental sac, which will later develop into the tooth's enamel, dentin...

Drug Dosing: Geriatric Patients

345
Elderly individuals encompass a diverse population with varying degrees of age-related physiological changes. Defining the elderly presents challenges, as the geriatric population is often arbitrarily categorized as individuals older than 65. However, many individuals in this group lead active and healthy lives, with an increasing number surpassing 85 years and falling into the older elderly category. Physiological changes associated with aging impact performance capacity and homeostatic...

Pharmacodynamics in Geriatric Patients: Effects of Age

314
Age-related pharmacokinetic changes are extensively documented, but understanding age-related pharmacodynamic alterations is relatively limited. This knowledge gap can be partly attributed to the complexity of developing appropriate measures of drug responses compared to bioanalytical methods for determining drug concentrations.Most information regarding age-related differences in human pharmacodynamics originates from cross-sectional studies. However, these studies assume that observed mean...

Pharmacokinetics in Geriatric Patients: Effect of Age on Drug Excretion01:18

Pharmacokinetics in Geriatric Patients: Effect of Age on Drug Excretion

311
In geriatric patients, renal physiology undergoes significant changes, including diminished renal blood flow and a lower glomerular filtration rate (GFR), leading to alterations in medication clearance. Drugs such as aminoglycoside antibiotics, lithium, and digoxin, which rely on glomerular filtration for removal from the body, particularly impact pharmacokinetics. These drugs tend to have slower clearance rates in older adults, necessitating careful dosage considerations.Evaluation of renal...

Area of Science:

  • Geriatric Dentistry
  • Dental Education
  • Healthcare Workforce Development

Background:

  • The aging population presents increasing healthcare complexities.
  • Fellowship-trained geriatric dentists are crucial for addressing the dental needs of older adults.
  • Current training programs require defined competencies.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To establish a consensus-based set of core competencies for Geriatric Dental Fellowship Training Programs.
  • To guide curriculum development and enhance training quality.

Main Methods:

  • Employed the Delphi technique, a multi-round anonymous expert questionnaire process.
  • Initiated with 45 competencies derived from literature review.
  • Achieved consensus through iterative feedback and expert input.

Main Results:

  • Round 1 proposed 45 competencies.
  • Round 2 involved 19 respondents, refining the list to 39 competencies.
  • Round 3 resulted in a final consensus list of 42 core competencies.

Conclusions:

  • The Delphi process successfully identified essential competencies for geriatric dental fellowship training.
  • These competencies form a foundation for standardized and effective geriatric dental education.
  • This initiative addresses the need for specialized dental care for the aging demographic.
